The UK’s first food hall for dogs is aiming to offer its canine customers specialist treats such as liver cakes and “pupper-cinos”.

Based in Bobby & Co department store in Bournemouth Drool will feature a doggy tuck shop, a “lick n’ mix” station and a cake stand.

Stands are at dog height and the animals will be given the opportunity to choose their favourite treats using dedicated sniffing holes.

All the snacks have been specially designed by artisan dog bakeries from around the country, with dog wine and beer even available to take away.

The concession is part of the reopening of the former Debenhams store, and will be available for the public to visit from September 9.
